What’s Really Going On at Grand Boulevard Health & Rehab in Miramar Beach?
Tucked away off Sandestin Lane in Miramar Beach, Florida, Grand Boulevard Health & Rehabilitation Center markets itself as a reputable skilled nursing facility.
With 97 licensed beds and operated by a for-profit entity called Grand Boulevard Operating Investments LLC, the facility appears to be a stable provider of long-term care.
Like most Florida nursing homes, Grand Boulevard Rehab is part of a growing trend in Florida’s nursing home industry where investment groups and absentee owners—such as Flnho Capital Group LLC, ZBL Panhandle 7 LLC, and corporate figures like Benjamin Landa and Joel Leifer—run elder care centers through a maze of limited liability companies. This setup can often obscure accountability, making it harder for families to get answers when things go wrong.
The facility’s ownership structure is byzantine. Further, Grand Boulevard has faced multiple state citations for regulatory violations, including deficiencies in fire safety, resident supervision, and care plan documentation. A February 2025 inspection uncovered several Class D deficiencies, including failures to allow residents to self-administer medications when appropriate and inaccurate documentation of resident assessments.
Staffing metrics tell a mixed story. While the facility claims to exceed state averages in nurse staffing hours, it has still experienced nearly 30% staff turnover, which raises concerns about consistency in care and burnout among frontline workers.
The reality is, when caregivers leave frequently, it’s often residents who suffer.
Grand Boulevard Rehab enjoys a five-star Medicare rating, but it has faced citations for subpar resident care. These issues were eventually corrected.
Inspections at Grand Boulevard Health & Rehab
2023 Fire & Life Safety Concerns
In November 2023, during a fire and life safety inspection, the facility received several Class D citations, including:
- Inadequate corridor door ratings and missing proper smoke/fire protection hardware
- Lapses in testing and documentation of patient-care electrical equipment
- Other violations related to National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) codes
All issues were promptly addressed and officially resolved by December 12, 2023.
Late 2023 Clinical Safety Deficiency
A standard health inspection in November 2023 flagged one Class D deficiency related to staff supervision — specifically, the facility failed to properly prevent accident hazards and did not adequately supervise certain residents. This issue was formally corrected by November 29, 2023.
2024–Early 2025: Clean Slate
Following the mid-2023 issues, complaint inspections conducted in March 2024 and September 2024 resulted in no citations. This suggests a strong corrective response and improved adherence to regulatory standards.
February 2025 Health Inspection Findings
A routine inspection on February 20, 2025 resulted in three Class D clinical care-related deficiencies:
- F0554 – Self-administration of medications: Residents were not properly evaluated or permitted to manage their own medications when clinically appropriate.
- F0641 – Resident assessment accuracy: Documentation of certain resident assessments was incomplete or inaccurate.
- N0071 – Care plan deficiencies: Essential components were missing from some residents’ care plans.
All cited deficiencies were addressed and corrected by March 12, 2025.
Summary
- November–December 2023: Multiple safety-related violations were cited and quickly resolved.
- 2024: Complaint-based inspections showed no new issues.
- February 2025: Minor documentation and care-plan issues were identified and remediated within 20 days.
Grand Boulevard Health & Rehabilitation has demonstrated a pattern of correcting regulatory violations quickly and effectively. While there were notable oversights in both fire safety and care documentation, the facility has shown improvement in recent inspections and appears to be trending toward more consistent compliance.
